  • Free updates until 31 Dec 2027 — revised editions are added to your Library

These formats were written and compiled for education and knowledge-sharing. They show how documents of each kind are commonly structured under Indian law as on October 2026. They are not legal advice, and buying or using them does not create an advocate–client relationship with the authors or with Expert Jurist LLP. Every matter turns on its own facts, and laws, rates and court practice change. Always engage a qualified advocate to review and adapt a format before filing any case or signing or registering any document. The authors and Expert Jurist LLP accept no responsibility for use of these formats without such review.

These are launch prices, held until 31 October 2026. From the next day the standing prices apply.

Updates

Free updates until 31 Dec 2027. When an update is released, we email you a fresh download link. Your purchase is saved in your Library at societysewa.in/library, which you open any time with the email address you paid with; the emailed link also works for 12 months (up to 5 downloads). Each edition carries the date the law was checked (law as on October 2026), so you always know what it is current to. Updates are issued as the law and procedure move; they are not a promise of legal advice on your matter. A later new edition, if one is published after 31 Dec 2027, is a separate purchase.

What you are paying for — and what is free

Statutes, rules and court forms are public. What you pay for here is time: 1,000 formats already drafted, numbered, indexed and laid out, so you adapt a precedent instead of starting from a blank page. Criminal and procedural references are drafted for BNS, BNSS and BSA; the concordance chart helps you map old references. Practice Essentials has 1,000 formats in English; the Complete Library has more depth and the Marathi files. These are educational and reference formats, not legal advice. Laws, rates and procedures change and depend on the facts of each matter. Have a qualified advocate review any document before you sign, execute or file it. Licence: personal and professional use by the purchaser only. You may use and adapt the formats for your own matters and your own clients. You may not resell, share, upload, distribute or publish them, or any part of them, in any form.

About the Authors

Adv. Jyotishwar V. BhosaleAdvocate, Bombay High Court · Since 2008B.Sc., LL.B. · Advocate, Bombay High Court · Managing Partner, Expert Jurist LLP

Adv. Jyotishwar V. Bhosale has more than 18 years of practice across courts, tribunals and boardrooms. He leads Expert Jurist LLP, Advocates & Legal Consultants, Navi Mumbai — a firm built on deep legal expertise sharpened by the intelligent use of modern legal technology.

A modern, technology-led law firm. Expert Jurist LLP is a full-service firm serving companies, startups and in-house teams, homebuyers, developers and lenders, housing societies, government employees, members of the armed forces and paramilitary, and public authorities. Its practice covers corporate and commercial law, real estate and RERA, land acquisition and compensation, criminal law, service law (AFT, CAT, MAT), co-operative societies, intellectual property, compliance and POSH, and arbitration and mediation. Its public-sector work includes matters connected with major infrastructure projects — among them the Mumbai–Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail (bullet train), the Public Works Department, the Irrigation Department, MMRDA and MahaRail — as one part of a wider practice for businesses and individuals alike.

Technology at the core. The firm uses AI-assisted research and drafting in its daily practice, always under an advocate’s review, and builds its own legal-technology platforms: LSR Guru (legal scrutiny reports for banks and NBFCs), POSHGuard (POSH Act compliance), AFT Helpdesk (Armed Forces Tribunal matters), RERA Resolve (homebuyer remedies) and an intellectual-property portal.

Its purpose. To make sound legal knowledge simple, affordable and within reach of everyone — helping companies stay compliant, helping individuals find their way to justice, and sharing legal know-how widely. “Always with you on the path of Justice.” This library is part of that mission.
